On week 3. And went on my first 1 mile jog. I felt no discomfort. I had laparoscopic inguinal hernia mesh surgery. Stay strong everyone listen to you body. My surgeon said I can start weightlifting lightly next week (week 4)
How's your day going after surgery 😢
The first two day after surgery are the roughest but manageable.
Have someone at home to help you for 48 hours and take your pain killers but you’ll be good. Eat healthy and and try and get good rest. Try and move a bit around the house. I was getting 1,500 steps the first two days not much
I’m 51 had 2 ingurnial hernias and 6 weeks ago an umbilical hernia all meshed I’m going to slowly slowly start very light high rep training with a little help 😉 thank you sir for your advice.
36 year old male . I had laparoscopic robotic assisted surgery a week ago . I’m in the gym now !!!!!! # Gains 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I encourage you to take it slow brother, the mesh needs time to collegenate to really lock in.
just got myself surgery about 3 weeks ago and too and thought I busted it out after over stretching. . Felt mentally aweful thinking about having to redo the whole thing. It was a wake-up call for me to be patient.
I did the same thing. Barely been 4 months. I didn't take the time to fully heal. Jacked myself up again. Hard to do as a stay at home dad of 3 little ones. Now I'm waiting for them to set a surgery date.
Hello can plz tell were was your hernia.....near belly button ?
@@ianmascari890me too bro, just stretched and thought I busted it, thankfully not 😂
Kindly tell me the name of the hospital and doctor
Pls suggest if this is all advisable for Umbilical Hernia surgery as well ?
I am 6 weeks to the day. Feeling much much better. Not a weight lifter, but been doing pretty much everything except heavy lifting.
Age 36 . Electively opted for a bilateral inguinal hernia surgery done 3 days ago by the laparoscopic mesh repair TEP method. Right side 2cm and left side was 1.8 cm.
Things I considered and asked before the surgery:
1. Must definitely opt a good surgeon with good years of experience doing laparoscopic surgeries.
2. Ask what quality of mesh is being used, recurrence rates and complications associated with it.
3. Ask what experiences has the doctor had with other patients.
4. What experience does the doctor have dealing with complications from the mesh?
My recovery process till now:
At Hospital -Day- 0 (night after the surgery) : Since it was performed under general anesthesia , it sort of wears off in a couple of hours and the pain kicks in. Pain was bearable but I couldn't get any sleep the whole night, I was not able to lie on my left side which is my common sleeping position.
At Hospital- Day-1 : Pain had subsided slightly. They did give me pain killers so it wasn't much to go through. Could get out of bed & take a short walk. Will feel a sting while you cough or sneeze, recommend you to hold a soft pillow and brace it against your abdomen to soothen the pain.
You might get your airways irritated due to the way anesthesia was given, the nurse came in with nebulizers to clear your lungs twice a day. Had a catheter inserted, not a good feeling. Was concerned about the pain when someone tries to remove it the next day.
Discharged from the hospital in the evening Day-2 : Pain had subsided a lot. Nurses continued to give me painkillers. Catheter was removed, no pain but a slight burning sensation for a second. I was able to get up and pee, experienced no pain while urinating. There will be slight discomfort because of the inserted catheter. I was constantly told to be up on my feet and take short walks. Left home at 5PM , make sure you get someone to drive you home, I don't think I could have driven home myself. Watch those speed bumps and ask the person to be cautious while driving you home, initial weeks are the most crucial.
Day-3 : At home: Slept well. Minimal pain. Walking around in the house normally doing regular chores.
Complications are less than 5% . 1-5% = 95% HOPE! 95% Positivity. I had severe preoperative stress because this was my first main surgery ,I was very nervous and I was training since I was 18 years old, I did not take a weeks break from the gym, felt totally downhearted.
Looking forward to complete 3 months of rehab and get back to the gym and start from baseline.
God Bless! We Fall We Rise
Hello bro i want to ask you something?????😢😢😢😢
Hello brother? Now its been 5 months, how is your swelling? how is the little pain of mesh?did you started weight lifting? do give us updates..
@@AstroBix5i am working out regularly, I don’t feel any pain now . But I don’t squat or deadlift heavy now . Moderate weights but I do all the workouts . Be smart with your training 😊 all the best .
@@AstroBix5do you feel mesh pain?
@@viveksparky1thank you for this, its been a year in my case and I have never went to gym.. age 22 and I want to start gym now.. i hope i dont face any issues, do you have any specific tips for me?
Good evening Dr Parthasarathy
I have a few queries and shall be thankful of you're able to answer them:
1. I had an open surgery for inguinal hernia 6 years ago. The end of the video wasn't clear to me. Should people with open surgery never lift heavy weights or is it just for 3-6 months?
2. I have decided to start working out with light weights and doing just sitting exercises (not standing free weights) as I have lost a lot of weight and muscle in these years. Do you suggest any other precautions before starting to workout ?
Thanks
Did you start working out? How soon your experience so far?
I have the same doubt . Please someone clear it
@@ArjunKalsiwhat about you? Did u also got hernia repaired
@@kartikmishra65 i did. 2 years back
Hello doc. I am 40. Male. I had a L5S1 operation 1 year ago. My operator who is considered one of the best brain surgeons in my country told me to avoid anything other than walking or swimming, avoid impact sports like jumping ropes, basketball or even running for the rest of my life.
I am very demoralized by this as jogging softly for 5 kms a day really helped me with my stress.
But any person other than him from their own experience told me it should be totally fine to get back on jogging now.
What should I do?
You should swim instead or cycle. Swimming the healthiest form of exercising. I had a massive hernia thanks to 2.5 years of waiting for my operation thanks to COVID restrictions!! It was a nightmare and my operation was complicated and invasive. Had an infection due to skin bug, but thanks to VAC pump by 3M all healed up well. My scar is huge and looks messy. I used to have a beautiful belly button. Now it's a bomb site. But I am glad it's over.....I even had to puke waking up from anesthetics. It was vile. I also had scar liquid tubes coming out of my tummy left and right. My hip replacement was easier and less fuss!!
Most surgeons state 6 weeks wait, post ingenial open mesh hernia, is sufficient for weightlifting
Hello, I'm 50 and just had a repair of a hernia mesh that only lasted a year. This 2nd operation was an open repair, 1st was robotic. I was told to wait 6 weeks before any weightlifting, and I agree. My question is this:
Would doing band workouts to stimulate muscles be ok? They don't hardly weigh anything, and would be good to get some blood flow/pump to the muscles. Thank you in advance!
Finally my dr.say this advice to me now satisfied 🤞🤞

I had a inguinal hernia for nine years. I have done its operation september 2021 open surgery but whenever i do any heavy work then my cecum side hurts. Why so?
it seems like doing upper body bodyweight isometric exercises would be the safest exercises once you are able to resume exercising. then perhaps you can move on to weight lifting down the road....does anyone think this is the case ?

Sir we can do weight training after nissen fundoplication
Doctor I'm already on 4th month of recovery after an inguinal hernia operation. Do I need to use an inguinal belt support before doing jogging or doing other exercises? And is it safe to do light weight training? I'm really out of shape and I want to start exercising even just light exercises. Hoping for your kind advice. Thank you
Did u exercise, i am also on 4th month and wish to workout
I'm on the end of month two, tomorrow is my third month after open inguinal hernia with mesh operation. My doc said after the third month I can lift as much as I want. He said that second month don't lift anything over 5 kg and third month don't lift anything over 10 kg. He insisted on an open surgery approach because he said the recurrence with laparoscopic surgery was higher. I'm a 30 years old active male, and I plan on doing push ups and chin ups after month three. Basically resuming my excersise but with my own weight. I plan on doing weights after month four. Hope everything goes well, good luck to you all and don't lose hope. Remember calories in and calories out. Eating is not a sport. Take care.
@@Ppeshkuhi brother, its been 10 months, you started lifting weights? How much you lift? And do you still feel heaviness or stiffness or numbness at the surgery site?
@@AstroBix5 Hi, I have a full year since my hernia operation. It was at first of februrary last year. I can lift weights, but the place that the incision was made is a little numb. I feel the mesh, yes like a slight burning sensation from time to time. I notice it more often if I am overexcerting my body, like my guts want to expand, but there is no place to go. It doesn't feel alright when I shave with razorblade as I experience tingling and it's making me unconfortable.
For the lifting I mainly excercise with my own bodyweight and keep barbells and dumbbels to the side, because six months after surgery I had a car accident that left me with concussion and two slipped disks in the neck, so it's not about the surgery anymore. Currently dealing with consistent pain in right arm, shoulder and scapula. I have a pinched nerve so I mainly watch my diet, go for long walks, do some neck excercises and some calisthenics if my neck isnt killing me.
You should be alright after surgery, just keep it light for at least 6 months as I did. You can do some own bodyweight exercises, at least I did by start of month four, but stop if you feel pain.
@@Ppeshku thanks for such a detailed reply and it feels bad knowing about your car accident and injuries caused due to it, i hope you get well pretty soon, all the best and take care 👍👍

❓How many of you have been lifting weights after a hernia surgery? Yes Or No
❓How many weeks or months after have you began lifting weights again? Specify duration
❓Are you experiencing any pain or discomfort during your training now? Yes or No
Lets create a repository with your replies so that its easier for others to follow!
My open inguinal hernia surgery left me with a lot of pain for a couple of weeks, until the scar tissue began to form and stabilize the mesh. I think I returned to weights about a month after surgery, but with a SEVERELY modified routine: no standing barbell exercises (light dumbells only), no heavy weights, mostly bench, chair and pulley exercises. Additionally, I continued wearing a truss for extra support, for a couple of YEARS while increasing my workout loads, to provide extra support. Not sure I needed it, but it being my first hernia, I wasn't confident the mesh would hold. Eventually, I was able to discard the truss and return my workouts to previous levels. My advice is to modify your routine, start light, increase your load only to the extent you feel no discomfort (sorry, "no pain no gain" does NOT apply here), and continue to use support to minimize the chances of recurrence, until you can forget you've had the surgery.

Hindi me bolo sir 🙏
A gym rat will laugh at this video. 3 months out will take years of hard work away.
What a gym rat would prefer - losing little bit of gain or getting hernia again
Yes a failed hernia can be repaired by open cut not laproscopic but only x1 not x3 ?
See 3 months of light jogging for long duration, using 2.5-5 kg dumbells, some breathing exercises, and proper protein intake will not take away all the muscle mass. It may come down by 20-25% bit if the above said precautions are followed then getting back to the original strength when they are given green signal will be a matter of just 1 month or 40 days. I think its a better idea then a hernia recurrence.
